Equilibria and hadron multiplicities in heavy-ion collisions

The intranuclear cascade is an approximate microscopic model of heavy-ion collisions in which the space-time evolution of the nucleons is followed as they collide with one another. This model is used: (a) to test the validity of simpler models as the two-fireball model; (b) to estimate the validity of the assumption of chemical equilibrium and to calculate the total pion production cross-sections; (c) to investigate the average primordial charge multiplicity and the number of participants as a function of the beam energy.
